Transport Union
The Transport Union is an infrastructure and developmental organization based entirely within the nether on CivMC. Spearheaded and run by NovaCeasar, the Transport Union is based entirely within the nether dimension, referred to by residents as the Belt or Ring Space and operating independently of inyalowda (inner, or overworlder) influences.
The Transport Union administers a large network of farms, rails, horse tunnels, roads, settlements, and operational outposts scattered across the Ring Space. The T.U. administering of the infrastructure is with the goal of mutual cooperation and the free movement of civilians without fear of inyalowda harassment or attacks.

The place we go is the place we belong. This is no different. No one has more right to this, none more prepared. Inyalowda go through the Gates, call it their own, but a Belter opened it. We are the Belt. We are strong, we are sharp, and we don't feel fear. |

The below is the preamble of the TU Charter;
"
In common cause across the nether, the Transport Union is an institution dedicated to the development of public infrastructure within the Belt and the gates connecting it to the Inyalowdan world; furthering the settlement and colonization of the Ring Space in a way that promotes mutual cooperation, freedom of movement, and reduces the barriers individual players will have to overcome in search of a homeland free of Inyalowda threats and concerns.
